Big Nerd Ranch Intro to iOS Tutorial at mdevcon.

This is a very simple single-view iOS app that demonstrates a few techniques for iOS development:

• Creating a user interface with the Interface Builder in XIB files
• Connecting the user interface to code, for updating the UI elements and for reacting to user interaction (i.e., UILabels and UIButtons)
• Creating a simple data structure using NSDictionary, NSArray, and NSString for rapid prototyping

This exercise is meant to whet your appetite for iOS development by demonstrating how a simple app can be developed rapidly using Xcode, Interface Builder, and a few Foundation classes.
